Steps

  1. Shred the cheese blend using a grater or food processor.
  2. Cook the hot dogs on a flat surface (griddle or skillet) over medium heat until heated through. Optional: Slit the hot dog lengthwise for added texture and crispiness.
  3. Assemble the sandwich layers by placing shredded cheese down first, followed by pickled jalapeños/pickles, then the cooked hot dogs, and finally more cheese on top.
  4. Pack the assembled sandwiches firmly to create a flat layer of cheese.
  5. Spread butter generously on both sides of the assembled sandwiches (the outside surfaces).
  6. Place the sandwiches onto the griddle. Flip the sandwich so that the cheese side is facing down first, allowing it to form a crisp crust.
  7. Continue cooking until the cheese has formed a brown, crispy crust on the edges and the inside layers are heated through.
  8. Flip the sandwiches and toast the other side of the bread until golden brown and crispy.
